System and method for rehabilitation

Abstract

A system for determining an assessment of at least one exercise performed by a user is described. The system includes an input device, and a computing device. The input device is configured to monitor at least one exercise performed by a user. The computing device includes processors and a memory. The memory is coupled to the processors and stores program instructions that when executed by the processors cause the processors to: (1) generate a user interface displaying a content; (2) provide an instruction associated with the at least one exercise; (3) determine an indication of movement associated with the at least one exercise; (4) in response to a determination of the indication of movement, determine an assessment of the at least one exercise; and (5) in response to a determination of the assessment of the at least one exercise, perform an operation.

       5. The system of  claim 4 , wherein the program instructions, when executed, further cause the one or more processors to:
 execute executable data associated with the instruction associated with the first exercise at least once if an execution history of the executable data is empty. 
 
     
     
       6. The system of  claim 1 , wherein the input device is configured to mount on a wearable device, the wearable device comprising one of an orthosis equipment, a rehabilitation equipment, and an orthopaedic equipment. 
     
     
       7. The system of  claim 1 , wherein the input device comprises one of a g-sensor, a gyro-sensor, an m-sensor, an o-sensor, a position sensor, a proximity sensor, an ambient sensor, a thermometer, a pressure sensor, a pedometer, and a camera. 
     
     
       8. The system of  claim 1 , wherein the indication of movement comprises at least one of a range of motion, a posture, stability, balance, a pattern of movement, a repetition, a vibration, a velocity, a time period of movement, or a length of time for holding a particular posture. 
     
     
       9. The system of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a server for exchanging a profile of the user with the computing device, the server comprising: 
 a storage device configured to store at least: 
 second program instructions to be executed by the server; 
 the indication of movement; 
 the assessment of the first exercise; 
 one or more instruction data; and 
 a database. 
 
     
     
       10. The system of  claim 9 , wherein the server further comprises an intelligence engine, and the second program instructions stored in the storage device, when executed by the intelligence engine, cause the intelligence engine to:
 assign at least one of the one or more instruction data to the profile by at least: 
 accessing the database; 
 generating an analysis based on the profile and the database; 
 selecting, based on the analysis, the at least one of the one or more instruction data; and 
 updating the profile. 
 
     
     
       11. The system of  claim 9 , wherein the server further comprises a management agent configured to allow an authorized personnel to at least:
 access the management agent; and 
 assign at least one of the one or more instruction data to the profile. 
 
     
     
       12. The system of  claim 1 , wherein the program instructions stored in the at least one memory of the system, when executed, further cause the one or more processors to:
 establish a connection between the input device and the computing device; and 
 transmit an input from the input device to the computing device. 
 
     
     
       13. A therapeutic system, comprising:
